Who it's for

Mid-size to large enterprises (SmartRecruiters states plans exist for startups through global enterprise) that need a corporate applicant tracking and hiring platform; the vendor states its product is not intended for staffing/recruitment agencies.

What you get

SmartOS, described by the vendor as 'the Talent Operating System', bundles applicant tracking, job distribution, candidate screening (Winston Screen), interview scheduling, a recruitment CRM, offer management, analytics/reporting dashboards, and an AI hiring companion (Winston), plus open APIs and a partner marketplace.

How it works

Recruiting teams post and syndicate jobs to job boards, manage applicants through a single ATS record, screen and schedule candidates with AI assistance from Winston, collect structured interview feedback via scorecards, and route offers for approval, with native analytics dashboards and compliance/EEO reporting built on top of the same platform.
